ABSTRACT:
A keratin K1 vector for expression of a nucleic acid sequence in an epidermal cell. The vector includes a 5' flanking region which includes necessary sequences for expression of a nucleic acid cassette, a keratin K1 3' flanking region which regulates expression of a nucleic acid sequence, predominantly in the epidermis, and a linker which connects the 5' flanking region to a nucleic acid. The linker has a position for inserting a nucleic acid cassette. The linker does not contain the coding sequence of a gene that the linker is naturally associated with. That is, the linker is not the normal gene associated with the 5' and 3' regions.
